Its all R2R does no one have a MMM? Always played well for me compared to a R2R even tho they are the exact same profile?

I've always thought MMM was a much better version, there's also two others, one gorilla based, and another gold mine style. Both seem to play better than R2R.

Its better to force out lines i find, as it will roll or not regardless of how you force it. You need some real luck on these. Best i've had is the £85 IM followed by a £35 afterwards. I tend to not even try them now though, 9/10 times you'll find them under the fiver block.

That has cheifly been my stance on these. The annoying thing is there are so many of the blooming things. Thankfully, one has just been replaced by a +6 Vortex, which cheered me up!

Does anyone else just also find these terribly boring to play? The feature board is essentially useless, so it's get on the cash trail and gamble up and then bomb out, 90%+ of the time at a fiver or below.

Matt(B), lines seems to be the way to go, but so many times it's not there. Do you just push all out for im from lines (ala reverse invincible on others) , or if it's not there from first lines take your £35 (usually flat, maybe+£15) + afters if it has cost loads (usually) and leave?

This machine is the very last I played and got a MS in my penultimate spin. Have been off the machines/puggys/fruits for almost 3 months now. Fed up blowing all my cash, so I am delighted as it was slowly but surely ruining my existence

Had just over a tonne in it, then got a MS of £71, then threw that all back in and got £120 out.

Relived to say the least, and thought it would be a fitting way to end my years upon years upon years of throwing money I couldn't afford to spend into gambling machines...

If this does the 80-90 top, i find there's another 35 not far away, streaks big, seen it more times than not.

Ive always been grossly disappointed with the top on this machine. I think ive just been very unlucky - i dont play fruities partciularly often, maybe couple of times a week, and id say ive got about 8 MSs on these over the course of time. not ONE of them has been over about £55.

Also, ive noticed this machine does NOT like giving the top unless it has offered an IM - anyone else find this?

lol, was told that long long time ago, red numbers 1s and 12s mean's it's ready, a lot of u will remem this trick cesars etc, but it's a load of bullshit! also red lines don't mean it's ready all the time either, if it's offering ss or over a 5er it's ready, it's as simple as that, number cruncher and rattle n roll for quick jp's - ms . rare to get big streaks and roll's out of these unless pump a shit load into it for top, as it takes a shit load for it, in a busy pub could make a few quid, if manage to blag it early, otherwise quite a poor machine to play on the whole. and i played a hell of a lot, don't know why i just like this machine. ( and not for the profit margins ) lol

The big tops usually come from IM, but not always silent, plus the 35 that follows the biggy has never came from IM just normal board.

I find this machine so ridiculously easy to read and tell, the hard part is how much the top costs.

let's have an Ob style super realistic post for a moment here.

I was doing quite well in the pub tonight. Had blagged a £35 on the Power 5 (chipped of course) and Snakez and Ladders was being wierd. You know snakez, it was £134 off but that doesn't always mean doom. Anyway it kept sort of almost being there, but I was testing the water. Ended up milking as the Itbox notechanger was off which would mean I could go £300 in and NOT be able to play the quiz for change. The last thing you want when you're £300 into a snakez is a QUIZ and NO CHANGE! Yeah bloopa loopa I had blooped a couple of blue Stop 'n Steps in for reds and yeah it had cost a bit, but not as much as £25. It was, well lots to say, but it's snakes. Not like FNC, you get your.....well look I can't fucking talk on here can I? Can't fucking talk as people are listening, can't give away flavas and stuff. Loads of nosey industry people hanging on my every word. Yeah I GOT LUCKY and had some STOP 'n STEPS as I WASN'T GOING ALL OUT FOR THE TOP because I WASN'T OK?

EDIT: I played snakes and power5 and was about £40 in profit at this point. I was actually £42 up but I didn't want to say that. Feeling that things were REASONABLY FRESH I decided to try the Monopoly ROAD TO RICHES. This brings us on to what this post is all about.

SLAGGING OFF MONOPOLY ROAD TO RICHES.

I thought this would be a quick BANG! Out of the corner of my eye I had seen a note go in and nothing come out. Surely a bit of a cushion there. I only wanted a quick bit of pint money to go with my £Meaning of life.
£9 in for a board. Stingy. It was a standard £3 affair. It had £3 written all over it. So what now? Well I felt sure there was a red lucky roll type £15 blag middle row number cruncher type blooper in the making. £6 in for a board (50p).....2.......higher, no car there so obviously it's not going to.......fucking lose to a 1. Cheers. Then it was costly boards and irritating pointless losing gambles. Lost £21 in next to no time. It blatantly wasn't hiding value. It was just being shit. I say that, some muntling probably put in a pound and got £15. Or someone put in a pound, got £15 (maximum short term value) then decided to force and put in £85 for flat £35 and small afters. Or it had been ripped to death by something or other and that £10 that went in before me wasn't enough to get things nice. I'd have had more joy on a super dead Cluedo? What did they get? Hmmmm.

I've had some reasonable luck on this in the past, but I've never been ripped for £20 from a smatterring of poor boards on this in the past. Dreadful. I just wanted to moan about that. That's all. Dreadful. What a rip.

poor man's cleudo this machine, yes it CAN offer nc/rattle and roll, but it often doesn't, making you put £40-50 in for a SSS which is usually a flat £35.

The only good profit comes when u blag the big top, which in my experience is from the all cars board...

not a machine worthy of going into a pub for thats for sure.
